Budweiser

Lone Star Beer

"The National Beer of Texas" seems to have two strikes against it in this at-bat. Strike one: Lone Star's now-defunct San Antonio brewery was founded by Adolphus Busch. Of "Anheuser-Busch, St. Louis, Missouri" fame. Strike two: The company that now owns the Lone Star brand is headquartered in Illinois. Which is not very Texas of them.
